Application filed April 18,

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, Em marine Gonziiilnz, a citizen of Mexico, residing at Santa Earbara, in the county of Santa Barbara and State of California. have ini'ented a new and useful Collar, of which the followinn; is a specification.

This invention relates to apparel, it ing the. primary object of the invention to provide a novel means by which a cravat may be secured to a collar, to obviate the necessity of untying the cravat to remove the same.

A further object Oi the invention is to provide means to permit the ready application of a made up cravat, in a manner to simulate a tied cravat. V

A still turther object of the invention to provide means for applying a cravat to a soft collar, eliminating the possibility of too wrinkling oil the collar.

With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement ct parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may he made within the scope of what laimed, with out departing from the spliit of the invention.

Referring to the drawing z- Figure 1 is a front elevational view of a collar showing the neck tie as applied. thereto, the collar being; partly broken away to illustrate the connection between the collar folds.

Figure 2 is a modified term of means; and

Figure 3 is a perspective view of a sewn: ing pin as employed with the structure as shown by l igure 'l of the drawing.

Referringto the drawing in. ietail, the reference character dejsiguates a collar which is of the usual construction, and as shown, the collar is provided with tabs (5 arranged in spaced relation with each other and secured to the collar adjacent to the ends thereof.

Each of these tabs is formed of cloth ma terial, having one end thereof formed into securi up;

a loop as indicated at 7, the loop of one tab being disposed in registry with the loop of the adjacent tab.

The cravat which is employed in connec tion with the collar, is of the made up type, and provided with extensions 8, each of which being; provided with a loop 9 adapted to be positioned between the loops '7 of the pairs of tabs 6, so that the loop 9 will register with the loops 7 of the tabs.

While the loops are in such registering positions, securing pins 10 are inserted in the loops, and as shown, these pins are pro vided with heads 11 to contact with the o1)- per edge of the upper tab of each pair to restrict movement thereof. It might be fillther stated however that these pins 10 are formed preferably of rubber or other lexible material, which is capable of preventing displacement oi the cravat with respect to the collar, but at the same time more with the movements of the collar incident to the user moving his body.

in the modified form of the invention as illustrated by Figure 2 of the drawing, the extensions 12 provided with eyelets 1 to be'positioncd over the buttons 14': tl at are secured between the outer and inner folds of the collar. From the toregoing it will be readily seen that a made up cravat may be secured to a collar, the same etlect being presented as it the tie were placed around the collar and tied in position.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is In a device of the character described, a col-lat having tabs arranged in spaced relation and disposed in pairs. a cravat having extensions loi-u'ied with loop portions. the loop portions adapted to be positioned between the tabs of the respective pairs, and means extending through the tabs and loop portions ot the extensions for securing the cravat to the collar.

In testimony that l claim the l'oregroii' as myown, l have hereto attired my signature in the presence of two witnes es.
